She looked haggard and frail.Nina held her. "Are..are you okay? What happened to you?!""I'm fine" even her voice sounded weak "Mateo denounced me already so I still feel a little weak""What?! He denounced you?!" Nina couldn't believe her ears.Alicia sighed as she grabbed Nina's hands."Don't shout too much" she then reached out for something inside her hood "Here" she handed it to Nina."What's this?" Nina marvelled at the blue shiny substance in her hands."The other time when you had ask if there was another way to stop Mateo" she paused "Yes there is a way" she said.Nina's eyes brightened."I had only lied because if he had known that there's another way to stop him he'd get rid of it and then there'd be no other way" Alicia saidNina quickly nodded "But..how do I use this?""The slightest chance you get, you'll have to rip his chest open and place this in it""Rip his chest open???" Nina's eyes widened "How would I do that? Perhaps I'm not able to..to do this,what then would

It was evening by the time Nina dismissed the training.Unaware of what would happen she told them to come again tomorrow.With that,she turned and went up to her room.However she was surprised to see maids and guards scurrying up and down, preparing one thing or the other.Vampire men gathered at one corner were staring intently at her.The blood lust in their eyes made Nina run for her life.She was glad Mateo wasn't in the room when she stepped in.She quickly pulled off the armor and stored in a safe place.After which she took a quick bath and wore a simple gown.She just wanted to sleep and pass the night immediately.However,the moment she laid on the bed the door to room banged open."My lady!" Jenna screamed It made Nina sit up abruptly,her heart in chaos.Jenna closed the door shut and hurriedly entered the room.Nina stood to meet her at once "My lady,you have to run away now!""What??" Nina shook her head,she didn't understand anything "Why,Jenna? Is something the matter?"

"What?!" Damon immediately stood up,all eyes turned to him "How could you say that? She's a werewolf.It could kill her!" he stated.Mateo curved his hand into a fist.Kiyiya immediately pulled Damon's wrist as if telling him to seat down calmly and not provoke Mateo's demons.But he snatched his wrist away.In a flash,Mateo was in front of him.He grabbed his jaw."Keep quiet and sit still,boy" his voice was low and dark "I am the King and my word is the law""Don't go against me else," he looked down at Kiyiya "Your mate might just suffer the same fate!"With that he pushed Damon back unto his chair and Damon reluctantly sat still.This was madness."So boys.." Mateo's voice boomed "Are we ready for tonight's show?!" They cheered except the huge ones whose gaze were all over Nina.As for her,she just resigned to fate.She felt tired of everything and it would be better if she just died anyway.Maybe that was the reason why she just stood still."Go on,number one" Mateo urged and Nina

Tears fell from her eyes.She couldn't withstand it anymore.This was more painful.She shuddered beneath him,her legs gave way but he held her up...sucking even more gruesomely."Ah..." a soft yelp came out from her lips "Ma..mateo.." she called but her scent was driving him crazy.He felt more powerful the more he took blood from her.He began to reason if this could be the reason why the Keeper wanted her.But now wasn't the time to think.He continued to feast with no attention to the pain Nina was feeling.It was to the point she began to bleed through the mouth.Then she spoke no more.She dropped her lifeless hands and shut her eyes.Damon stood up for the third time that moment.Kiyiya was the one stopping him each time but this time,he was hellbound."Let go,Kiyiya!" he snapped the moment she held unto him with tears in her eyes."Damon..don't.." she cried."We can't sit here and do nothing,Kiyiya" he said "He's gonna suck her dry!""But he's threatened to kill you!" Kiyiya said

The maid doctors were attending to Nina.The ground vibrated underneath them because of the heated fight outside.It was even a surprise that the roof hasn't come crashing on them just yet.The maids tried their best to revive Nina,but she wasn't waking up.Damon was long into the dungeon at the order of the senior guard.He had lost consciousness and had no idea of what was going on.It was only a matter of time before Kiyiya returned to the palace.Her mouth dropped open to see the ruins and debris that had formed few meters away from the palace.It was also by grace did she duck immediately and narrowly escaped being shot down by a huge burning fireball.She immediately found her way back into the palace.She thought that now Mateo was busy,it would be the right time to run away along with Damon.So glad was her heart at this thought,however the sight of the huge and ferocious guards guarding the new dungeon made her turn back in tears.The dungeon wasn't this guarded.Until this mome
